India Leads the Global Tech Discourse with Aadhar

Speaking at session on ‘India 4.0 Making technology work for all’, Mr Galpin said: “India has led the world with technology enabled governance such as its unique ID scheme (Aadhar) which has transformed the way the country transfers welfare benefits to the needy and also accesses data for KYC and other validation purposes through secure and safe means.

Cutting edge technology of the future including robotics, AI, big data and analytics are already big opportunities in India. Corporates and public sector organizations working across spaces such as fintech, bio similars, genome research, pharma etc are increasingly looking at India as an incubator of such advanced technologies for deployment at scale in global markets.

A reformist Government understands the importance of technology and with its underpinning on ‘Digital India’ is further encouraging such trends.’’- Dr. Simon Galpin, MD, Economic Development Board of Bahrain at the India 4.0 Making technology work for all session.”
